Стр. 96 - LET long-lived pansies here their scents bestow, The violet languish, and the roses glow ; In yellow glory let the crocus shine, Narcissus here his love-sick head recline ; Here hyacinths in purple sweetness rise, And tulips tinged with beauty's fairest dyes.
Стр. 92 - Fetch me that flower; the herb I showed thee once. The juice of it on sleeping eyelids laid Will make a man or woman madly dote Upon the next live creature that it sees.
Стр. 212 - Ohy woman! lovely woman! nature made thee .To temper man : we had been brutes without you. Angels are painted fair, to look like you : There's in you all that we believe of Heaven, Amazing brightness, purity, and truth, Eternal joy, and everlasting love.
